resume offer ends tomorrow by Alison Green on August 11, 2011 Just a heads-up that my resume review offer will end at midnight EST on Friday (tomorrow). So if you want it, get it now! Also, I need a synonym for “short” that begins with an F.

Ask a Manager* Post authorAugust 11, 2011 at 7:00 pm Frank Answer Friday. Does that imply the rest of the time the answers are pulling punches, I wonder?
A. Nonymous* August 11, 2011 at 11:22 pm “Frank Answer Friday” – short and to the point, sometimes blunt
Chris* August 11, 2011 at 5:50 pm If short means abridged, then fleeting, if it means inadequate then it would be Charlie Sheen’s favorite, failing.
Ask a Manager* Post authorAugust 11, 2011 at 7:01 pm Failing Answer Friday! The day I give terrible answers to readers’ questions.
Ask a Manager* Post authorAugust 11, 2011 at 7:01 pm Fleeting Answer Friday … read now or they disappear! I like this one.
JamieH* August 11, 2011 at 7:07 pm Fast? Not really a replacement for “short”, but could work in this context.
Ask a Manager* Post authorAugust 11, 2011 at 7:10 pm Fast. Of course. You have solved it! I was afraid I was going to have do Fancy Answer Friday, where all the answers would be in calligraphy or something.
Kimberlee* August 11, 2011 at 10:30 pm Lol, “fast” is sort of the obvious answer that NOBODY was coming up with. :) Kudos to JamieH!
Erica B* August 12, 2011 at 1:12 pm First word that popped in my head was “frugal”.. but it sounds like you are only giving half answers or a 30% off answer. lol
Matt* August 12, 2011 at 10:17 pm I kind of liked “freaky answer friday. You list all the questions first and then all the answers second and we have to figure out which answer goes with which question. One key to it, you cannot use common words from the question. Like if someone asks about benefits, you never use the word benefit.
Anonymous* August 13, 2011 at 9:26 am I hope you offer this again in the near future–I’d love for you to review my resume, but I just couldn’t fit it in the budget this week.
Ask a Manager* Post authorAugust 13, 2011 at 7:15 pm I think I may offer it once or twice a year from here on out!
